Upgrade Minimos:latest gitea to version 1.27.0-r0 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gitea package and not the gitea package as distributed by Minimos.
See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.
Gitea's starred-repository and tracked-time API endpoints do not re-check current repository permissions before returning data associated with the requesting user. A user whose access to a private repository has been revoked can still retrieve repository metadata through /api/v1/user/starred and private issue titles through /api/v1/user/times. The disclosure depends on relationships or tracked-time entries created before access was revoked.
